    Rick and his team have built something special here, judging by the enthusiastic feedback from visitors of all ages and skill levels. First-timers consistently report standing up and catching waves during their very first lesson, with instructors like Rick, Joey, and JB earning praise for their patience and clear teaching style. The booking process is refreshingly straightforward with easy online reservations, and Rick gets specific kudos for being responsive and accommodating with timing and equipment needs. What really stands out is the versatility. Families love the surf camps where kids as young as 8 get up on boards successfully, while adults celebrating milestone birthdays and experienced surfers seeking advanced SUP lessons all report excellent, personalized instruction. Beyond the lessons, the rental operation runs smoothly with reasonable prices and convenient options like board delivery. The shop itself has that welcoming local vibe where people stop in for gear and end up having great conversations about surfing. Several reviewers specifically mention planning return visits, which speaks volumes about the quality of the experience.
